Under a Paramount-WBD merger, two struggling media giants would unite arstechni.ca/cYGf #warnerbros.discovery #ParamountSkydance #paramountplus #acquisitions #streaming #mergers #Netflix #Policy #hbomax #cable #Tech

I had a good talk with Gemini about the current age rating system on tv (cable and free over the air antenna tv)

My idea was: instead of ratting content specifically off of content, rate it off of the activities characters do in the shows more directly.

Lets take something simple like #ScoobyDoo Where are you.

originally rated g.

But in my system it would actually get a tv-pg 14 ratting. Here is why.

Because the crime solving that the mystery Inc are trying to solve on this show or even the franchise as a whole, obviously most kids wouldn't be doing this at this age. So to avoid kids imitating content, or other adult things based on the specific activities alone Scooby Doo would get a tv-pg 14 rating. Not a tv-g rating.

#Gemini said this system was more honest then the current system which i'm not surprised, and I thought maybe i'd post it and see if people like this concept.

gemini Convo snippetthe current ratting system. tbh tv-m would mostly likely end up as the least affected with my proposed age rating alternative. because most of he activities already done on movies or shows rated this, would likely put them in that same bucket on the rating system.

@botvolution nodds in agreement

And that is a huge problem!

I know that from experience with #Vodafone which against my protestations against it, was allowed to buy up #Unitymedia and has comitted itself to #Enshittification of my #Internet access to the point that I feel required to publicly petition @EUCommission & @BNetzA to regulate them as #Cable #monopoly akin to #DTAG but also not only demand my money back until they unfuck their mess, but even consider procuring a different #Internet access (which as a tennant means worse xDSL at worse speeds and prices!)

I don't know anymore what this was a response to, but I know it was something to do with foxes and cable. #cable #xmen #furryart

A grizzled, anthropomorphic fox with one glowing eye and one scarred eye scowls. He's wearing various straps and pouches over a tight bodysuit, reminiscent of early '90s "extreme" superhero comics.

Read this before you buy next time that cable for 300USD per inch ;)

Boo! The spouse doesn't want to stand up so I can decide if it's time to separate the cardigan for the sleeves. He's too comfy on the sofa watching curling. Hrumph!!

:)

I still love him & he's still totally knitworthy.
